Alumni Director Christina Evans comes to USN’s Development Office after spending years as a parent (Jackson ‘22 and Ansley '25) to two students at the school. Her passion for education and USN led her back to the school, and we’re excited to have her in the building. Evans enjoys making an impact in the school community and watching her Atlanta Braves.

Love graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and is studying to get her doctorate in nursing from Belmont University.

Horton comes to USN after a stint at the Tennessee Department of Revenue.
